Brazilian soccer star Ronaldinho, currently playing for Barca, is the top earning futbolista pocketing $30 million in salary and endorsements.
Ronaldinho — as with the singer Madonna, the surname is all but unknown to fans (his full name is Ronaldo de Assis Moreira) — earned $11 million in salary and the rest in endorsements from the likes of Nike, EA Sports, Cadbury and Pepsi. Fittingly, the 27-year-old Brazilian starred in a Nike ad — “Ronaldinho: Touch of Gold.”
Boy am I in the wrong business.
